Abstract:

Hybrid nanocomposites of binary Pt-Ru/Polyaniline were prepared by oxidative polymerization of aniline andformation Pt and Ru nanoparticles. The polymerization of aniline was carried out in the presence of Potassiumhexa cyano Platinate (IV) and Ruthenium (III) nitrosyl nitrate as oxidizing agents. During the reaction anilinemonomers undergo oxidation and form polyaniline (PANi) whereas the reduction of cations, result thefomiation of Pt and Ru nanoparticles. Nano-sized Pt and Ru particles were prepared by controlled reduction ofprecursors in micro emulsion medium, stabilized with the Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate. Micro emulsion solutionacts as both emulsifier and dopant to obtain stable nanocomposite. Pt-Ru/PAn nanocomposites are characterizedby cyclic voltammetry (CV). FT-IR spectroscopy and scarmine microelectronic microscopy (SEM).

Synthesis and characterization of Pt3Co bimetallic nanoparticles supported on MWCNT as an electrocatalyst for methanol oxidation

The impregnation method was used to synthesize Pt and Pt3Co supported on MWCNTs applying NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The structure, morphology, and chemical composition of the electrocatalysts were characterized through SEM, XRD, and EDX. X-ray diffraction showed a good crystallinity of the supported Pt nanoparticles on the composites and showed the formation of Pt3<...

V2o5-mwnt Nanocomposite as a Promising Support for Platinium in Methanol Electro - Oxidation

Introduction Direct methanol fuel cells are very important as a clean, low cost and portable power source because of several environmental problems in traditional energy producing systems. Compared to the hydrogen fueled PEMFCs, direct methanol PEMFCs are more compact and can be used in power portable electric devices. Platinum is the most active electro-catalyst for the electro-oxidation of me...

Application of copper oxide nanoparticles modified glassy carbon electrode for electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol

Copper nanoparticles were fabricated by electro-reduction of CuSO4solution in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) cationic surfactant as an additive through potentiostatic method. The prepared copper nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical methods. The SEM images reveal that the nanoparticles with diameters at about 70 n...
